because we're both tired of seeing that photo

Hi.Just wanted to write a new entry because I am sure you are sick of seeing that half naked old guy every time you click over to my blog, which granted, is probably not very often anymore since I haven't written anything for MONTHS!

So if there are any readers left (hi mom & dad!), here is a little story for you:

A few weeks ago I was outside taking some photos of the winter weather, when all of a sudden, my camera does SOMETHING. I don't really know what happened, but I kept getting an error message and the top half of my pictures were black. So I sent it to Canon and they told me it would be $300 to fix it. I wasn't too thrilled with that, so when I was at London Drugs picking up some photos yesterday, I thought I would look at dSLR's on my way past the case, just to check them out. I know I don't NEED one, but I have to say I really enjoy having one!Anyway, one in particular caught my eye: a Canon Rebel XTi, which is much better than the one I had (but for $325 on craigslist with 3 lenses included I wasn't going to complain!). This particular camera happen to be on clearance sale, and then the manager said she could knock off another $15o. So using my Christmas money (because really, what else was I going to use it for? Just stuff probably) I will go get a new camera body and only have to spend a little of my own money. I basically get a way better camera for just as much as it would cost to fix the other one!I think that's a good idea, and I am good with it.
